Full lyrics
Em Novo Exu
Quando tem forró
Começa de noitinha
Vai até nascer o sol
Vem tocador de lugar
Mas com Januário
O forró é mais mio
Quando chego lá
Que pego no meu fole
A coisa fica quente
E comigo ninguém bole
Quando eu tô tocando
Esquento a brincadeira
E o forró fungado
Pega fogo a noite inteira
Translation
In Novo Exu
When there's forró
It starts in the evening
Goes until the sun rises
Musicians come from everywhere
But with Januário
The forró is better
When I get there
And pick up my accordion
Things get hot
And nobody messes with me
When I'm playing
I heat up the fun
And the forró fungado
Catches fire all night long
